The geologist and priest Rev. Osmond Fisher was born in Dorset in 1817. He attended King's College, London and Jesus College in 1836, where he read for a degree in mathematics. During his time at Cambridge he struck up a friendship with the geologist Adam Sedgwick, who in 1852, proposed Fisher as a Fellow of the Geological Society. In 1881 he published 'The Physics of the Earth's Crust' in which he speculated that the Earth's crust may sit on top a liquid layer. This theory was ridiculed at the time, only slowly being accepted in the mid-twentieth century.
